My husband and I recently had the opportunity to have dinner at Trinity Taverna, a modern-style Greek restaurant located in the Beach(es) area of Toronto, courtesy of Faulhaber PR. The restaurant is located in what was formerly known as the Boardwalk Pub, and was developed by Peter Morentzos, known for Montreal-based eateries such as La […]
Last week, I was trying to come up with a good chicken dinner that was just a little…different. I was tired of the usual roasted chicken breast with herbs – even when a bit of mustard was added in. After much Googling, I found an maple, apple and onion chicken recipe from the US Kraft […]
The One of a Kind Show is in full swing and as usual, there are plenty of amazing vendors, ranging from fashion to crafts, art and more. Food is also one of the main attractions at the event and there are so many gift ideas in the form of stocking stuffers or even more formal […]
I almost never make mashed potatoes, save for Thanksgiving and maybe the one or two times I make shepherd’s pie. However, I recently found a recipe-with-a-twist – mashed potatoes and carrots from a website called Creating Naturally. Yes, potatoes and carrots, together. In one bowl. As one dish.

As usual, the expo will feature wines, spirits, beers and more from around the world, as well as delicious foods from various restaurants and other food-related […]
It’s been a crazy Thanksgiving weekend (along with a very busy week before that due to the shOws (article going live Wednesday)), so I thought I’d share some pictures from and thoughts about our Thanksgiving meal! This year, rather than just my parents, my husband and myself, my in-laws also joined us from Ottawa. So […]
Sweet potatoes in my opinion are a bit boring, but they are terrific sources of Vitamin B6, a good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin D and they contain that wonderful beta carotene(that keeps our eyes healthy and assists with keeping our immune system top notch). So, because I don’t find the taste of sweet potatoes […]
